Israeli President Shimon Peres, right, welcomes US National Security Advisor Susan Rice at the President's residence in Jerusalem on May 7 before they hold a diplomatic working meeting. Rice is in Israel for high-level talks only days after the collapse of a US-led peace bid, the White House said.

It is totally disgraceful that the national news media, including ABC News, NBC News, CBC News and even including Gannett News, has disregarded their obligation to the American people to report the most relevant news of current events. It is also very apparent that the national news media, with the exception of Fox News, has become subservient to the Obama administration, with little respect for passing any truth that reflects a negative light on this administration.

With that said I submit the following examples of recent events:

• The disgraceful remarks by Secretary John Kerry, concerning attributing Israel to an apartheid state.

• The recent statements by Secretary John Kerry, that he “sees the Ukraine as a uniquely Russian state,” where members of Congress of both parties are asking for his resignation.

• The surfacing of the memo that proves compliance of the White House in Secretary Susan Rice’s talking points that a video caused the attack at Benghazi.

• The volunteering of General Lovell to come forward to testify before Congress, that no video was the cause of the Benghazi attack and that we could have sent aide to the site of the attack and could have saved lives.

And I could go on and on; even if you may disagree, please recognize the seriousness of what is reflected by these national events.
